Oh wow, who predicted the pure sprinter?  but great one from Jans! I´m sad to see Kadri going that well as I really would´ve liked him

Thank you Roman and congratulations to Stromeon! I am thrilled with the result here by Reinhardt. In this field, he could easily have not even factored into the race but taking a podium spot here in Switzerland is brilliant from him.

Wow what a result! Was expecting the hills to have more of an impact so delighted to see Guerao survive and then pull off an impressive sprint to claim the victory, bodes well for future semi-flat classics through the rest of the season. I think we benefited from the work of other teams a little here though, as there seemed to be constant attacks being reeled in yet we seemed almost nowhere to be seen at the front of the bunch.
Big thank you to Roman for an excellent report, edge of the seat stuff towards the end there, and for all the congratulations; our first ever win in a classic in our 3rd year in the MG is certainly very satisfying!

I did not expect that to end in a bunch sprint of the peleton's fast men - I honestly expected a puncheur to be contesting that.
Congrats to Stromeon on the win

I was close to signing up for this race, looks like we wouldn't have done anything either here. Nice win by Guerao considering who came second, which just shows the hills had something to say, but not enough

Wow! Lo Cicero got to the final sprint? That's unexpected. Great victory for coldeportes, congrats Stromeon.
Also tremendous results for Novatek and Hugo Boss with multiple guys in the top positions.
Cool report as well, Roman, thanks!

Tough race, my guys did everything they could from Chaves joining in with the puncheurs on their attacks, to Summerhill making it a race late. Really thought this wouldn't be up to the sprinters to decide, but alas they got their way.

Thinking back Fat Gez was at his best in clustered sprints, rubbish in stage race controlled trains.
Seriously always happy to see sold guys shine.
